LAN IPv6 Auto Configuration – continued
Auto-Configuration
(continued)
When Stateful Auto-Configuration is selected, the following
additional settings appear:
Start Interface ID – Enter the start address for the DHCP IP Address
pool.
End Interface ID – Enter the end address for the DHCP IP Address
pool.
Leased Time (Hour) – Assigned IP addresses will be dropped after
this time period and the address may be assigned to a different
device on the network.
The default setting is 24 hours.
The Router Advertisement Daemon (RADVD) is used by system
administrators in stateless auto-configuration methods of network
hosts on IPV6 networks.
The RADVD is an open-source software product that implements
link-local advertisements of IPv6 router addresses and IPv6 routing
prefixes using the Neighbour Discovery Protocol (NDP) as specified
in RFC 2461. The Router Advertisement Daemon is used by system
administrators in stateless auto-configuration methods of network
hosts on Internet Protocol version 6 networks.
When IPv6 hosts configure their network interfaces, they broadcast
router solicitation (RS) requests onto the network to discover
available routers. The RADVD software answers requests with
Router Advertisement (RA) messages. In addition, RADVD
periodically broadcasts RA packets to the attached link to update
network hosts.
The router advertisement messages contain the routing prefix used
on the link, the link Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU), and the
address of the responsible default router.
LAN IPv6 Auto Configuration – continued
Assigned IP addresses will be dropped after this time period and the
address may be assigned to a different device on the network.
Default is 24 hours.
Select On to enable MLD (Multicast Listener Discovery) snooping
and select the MLD Snooping mode to use.
Standard Mode – Allows all multicast traffic to LAN clients.
Blocking Mode – Only allows multicast subscribed clients to
receive multicast packets.
Enable MLD LAN to LAN
Multicast
Select Enable to allow the Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD)
snooping function to constrain the flooding of IPv6
multicast traffic on LANs on the router.
Select Disable to turn this functionality off.
Select Enable to relay DHCP messages between DHCPv6 clients
and DHCPv6 servers on different IPv6 networks.
The following DHCPv6 related settings are required:
DHCPv6 Server IP Address – Enter the relay destination.
Selected WAN Interface – Select the type of interface to be used.
Hop limit – Set the number of hops (each time a data packet passes
through a network device on its way from its source to its destination)
a packet is allowed before being discarded.
